"Yunxian, don't go. Investigate the matter of the sacrificial blood first. Before we figure it out, don't let anyone leave the temple. Also, find some reliable people to protect Professor Lei and company. Don't let anyone take advantage of them, "Zhou Wen said to Lu Yunxian.
"Yes, Young Master Wen. I'll do it now." Lu Yunxian saluted and turned to leave.
Before Professor Lei and company could react, the shock that Zhou Wen had given them when he sliced through the Aoyin stone statue was just too intense.
"Professor Lei, wait for Yunxian to come over. You can go to the Qiongqi temple. Xu Wen, follow me. "With that said, Zhou Wen walked towards the Torch Dragon temple's passageway.
Xu Wen hurriedly followed, leaving Professor Lei and company standing there looking at each other.
"In the past, I heard that this Zhou Wen has caused quite a bit of trouble for the An family, causing the relationship between the An family and the Federation's upper echelons to worsen. From the looks of it, rumors can't be trusted. It does make sense for the An family to protect him. He should still be in school, right?" Professor Lei sighed as he looked at the Aoyin stone statue that had been split into two.
"I heard that he's only a freshman this year," another professor said.
"That's only seventeen or eighteen years old. To have such achievements at this age, if he were in our Lei family, our Lei family would be even more protective than the An family," Professor Lei said.
Qu Qingyun snorted coldly and said, "He's Wang Mingyuan's disciple. Who knows what he has done in private? Otherwise, how could a student have such achievements?"
Professor Lei glanced at Qu Qingyun and said meaningfully, "Qingyun, as researchers, it's a taboo to let emotions affect our judgment."
Qu Qingyun's expression changed slightly when he heard that, but he quickly returned to normal. He said respectfully, "Teacher, you're right. I know what to do."
"Everyone, take a break first. When Commander Lu brings people over, we'll head to the Qiongqi temple. Now that we're no longer restricted by the Aoyin stone statue, we can work for a long time. The work arrangements this time need to be replanned …" Professor Lei picked up a notebook and began studying it.
Zhou Wen led Xu Wen into the passageway that led to the Torch Dragon temple. After walking for a short distance, he stopped and said to Xu Wen, "Help me guard this place. No matter what happens inside, no matter what you hear, don't go over. Don't let anyone go over, understand?"
"Young Master Wen, what are you doing?" Xu Wen was alarmed. She immediately knew that Zhou Wen's trip wasn't as simple as taking a look at the Torch Dragon temple.
"Kill Torch Dragon." Zhou Wen didn't hide it from her. He couldn't hide it anyway. With that said, he headed for the tunnel.
Xu Wen was taken aback. By the time she reacted, Zhou Wen had already walked into the tunnel.
Although he had been here countless times in the game, it was a different experience in real life.
After all, he was not in the game now. If he made a mistake, he might lose his life.
Standing in front of the metal temple's door, Zhou Wen took a deep breath and closed his eyes, allowing his body and mind to calm down. It wasn't to adjust himself to his best state, but to make himself feel normal.
If something required him to use 120% of his abilities to complete it, it was a gamble. However, Zhou Wen didn't need to gamble. As long as he did what he needed to do normally, he could obtain the results he wanted.
When he opened his eyes, Zhou Wen had completely calmed down. He summoned his armor and Six-Winged and prepared to release the other crystal mirror at any time.
Holding the Golden Battle God Halberd, Zhou Wen pushed open the temple's door.
With the creaking sound of the metal door being pushed open, Zhou Wen saw the snake-like Torch Dragon Youngling. It was even more ferocious and terrifying than in-game. It was also larger, and its aura was even more oppressive.
As the poisonous smoke lingered, Torch Dragon opened its huge mouth and spewed out a surging wave of poisonous smoke.
The six wings on his back flapped as Zhou Wen instantly circled behind Torch Dragon at an unbelievable speed. Torch Dragon swept its tail, but everything was under Zhou Wen's control. His body moved in the most perfect trajectory, dodging Torch Dragon's repeated attacks before finally approaching its body.
The Golden Battle God Halberd stabbed into its scales with a Golden Divine Glow. Blood immediately flowed out of the Golden Halberd's body as Torch Dragon let out a terrifying scream.
In an instant, rows of lantern-like eyes lit up on its body. Each eye reflected light like a mirror, illuminating the entire metal temple.
The six wings on Zhou Wen's back and the Golden Battle God Halberd in his hand had already been retracted. When the power of the Bright Torch Vision World shone on his armor, it was reflected by the mirror, preventing him from being sucked into the Vision World.
With his experience in-game, Zhou Wen knew very well that the next minute was a critical period for him. As long as he could survive this minute, Torch Dragon Youngling would enter a weakened state. It would no longer be able to use the Bright Torch Vision World, and all sorts of skills would be greatly weakened. Then, he would have full confidence in killing Torch Dragon.
However, this minute was extremely difficult to endure even in-game. He had to ensure that he didn't make any mistakes.
The activation of Transcendent Flying Immortal wasn't to kill enemies, but to escape. Zhou Wen raised his speed to the limit as he flashed behind a metal pillar. His every move had been carefully calculated. He knew how to stall for time as much as possible.
Torch Dragon Youngling chased with all its might as it circled around the metal pillar. Its eyes shot out monstrous beams of light that crisscrossed the temple like laser beams.
Without a moment of pause, Zhou Wen constantly moved. With the help of the metal pillar in the metal temple, he dodged Torch Dragon Youngling's fatal attacks time and time again.
Seconds passed, but Zhou Wen remained as calm as ever. He knew that he was getting closer and closer to killing Torch Dragon Youngling.
Lu Yunxian quickly brought people over and arranged for them to be in charge of protecting Professor Lei and company. Although it was said to be protection, it was actually surveillance.
This was because the people who could tamper with the blood, apart from the people who obtained and transported the blood, were people like Professor Lei and company who were most likely to have changed the blood.
Although it was unlikely that they would do such a thing if they entered themselves, who knew if someone among them would find an excuse to leave early?
Therefore, while protecting them, he had to prevent any traitors from doing anything harmful to them.
"Why are you here? Where's Young Master Wen? "After Lu Yunxian arranged for his men, he ran over to see Zhou Wen.
However, just as he arrived at the tunnel, he saw Xu Wen standing alone at the entrance.
"Young Master Wen has entered," Xu Wen said.
"Why didn't you enter with him?" Lu Yunxian already felt that something was amiss.
"Young Master Wen didn't let me in. He even said that no one is to enter. He wants to kill Torch Dragon," Xu Wen answered truthfully.
Lu Yunxian's expression changed drastically. "Why didn't you stop him? You should know how terrifying Torch Dragon is. Although Young Master Wen is very strong, the chances of him surviving a creature like Torch Dragon are still very slim …"
As Lu Yunxian spoke, he heard a sharp cry coming from the direction of the Torch Dragon temple.
